Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, YouTube™ platformundaki ICON ve reçine infiltrasyon tekniğiyle ilgili videoların bilgilendirici içeriğini değerlendirmektir.
Yöntem: YouTube™’da ‘resin infiltration technique’ ve ‘ICON’ anahtar kelimeleri kullanılarak arama yapıldı. YouTube™ sonuçları “ilgililiğe göre” filtrelendi ve her iki anahtar kelime için ilk 100 video değerlendirildi. Dahil etme/dışlama kriterlerine göre 103 video analiz edildi. Videoların parametreleri (izlenme sayısı, beğeni sayısı, beğenmeme sayısı, yorum sayısı, yüklenme süresi, video süresi, etkileşim indeksi (II) ve video güç indeksi (VPI)) kaydedildi. Güvenilirlik, doğruluk ve içerik kalitesi; modifiye DISCERN Anketi, Amerikan Tıp Derneği (JAMA) kriterleri ve Küresel Kalite Ölçeği (GQS) kullanılarak değerlendirildi. İstatistiksel analizde Kruskal Wallis testi, Dunnett’in Post Hoc testi ve Spearman korelasyon katsayıları kullanıldı. Anlamlılık düzeyi 0.05 olarak belirlendi.
Bulgular: YouTube™’da ICON ile ilgili videolar analiz edildiğinde, video yükleyicisinin kaynağına göre yapılan değerlendirmede yalnızca JAMA kriterlerinde anlamlı bir fark bulundu (p<0.01). JAMA-GQS, JAMA-m-DISCERN ve GQS-m-DISCERN arasında pozitif korelasyon tespit edildi (sırasıyla r= 0.215, r= 0.32, r= 0.481).
Sonuç: YouTube™ videoları, beyaz nokta lezyonları veya florozis olan hastalara minimal invaziv bir tedavi seçeneği hakkında bilgi vermede faydalı olabilir. Ancak, kesin tanı ve tedavi için uzmanlara danışmak hayati önem taşımaktadır.

Evaluation of YouTubeTM Videos Regarding ICON as an Information Resource: A Cross-Sectional Study

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the informational content of YouTube™ videos related to ICON and the resin infiltration technique.
Method: ‘Resin infiltration technique’ and ‘ICON’ was searched as a keyword on YouTube™. YouTube™ was filtered by the relevance, and the first 100 videos for each two keywords were evaluated. After the inclusion/exclusion criteria 103 the video was analyzed. Parameters of the videos (the number of views, likes, dislikes, comments, the days since the upload, the duration of the video, interaction index (II), and video power index (VPI)) were recorded. Reliability, accuracy, and content quality were evaluated by the modified-DISCERN Questionnaire, the Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) benchmark, Global Quality Scale (GQS). The Kruskal Wallis test, the Dunnett’s Post Hoc and Spearman correlation coefficients were used for statistical analysis. The significance levels were set at 0.05.
Results: When the YouTube™ videos related to ICON were analyzed, according to video uploader sources assessment there was a significance different only in the JAMA criteria (p<0.01). A positive correlation was detected among JAMA-GQS, JAMA-m-DISCERN, and GQS-m-DISCERN scores (r= 0.215, r= 0.32, r= 0.481, respectively).
Conclusion: YouTube™ videos are useful for informing patients with white spot lesions or fluorosis that a minimal invasive treatment option is available. However, it is essential to consult professionals for definitive diagnosis and treatment.
